Lesson starters. Primary French -- le chemin de l'école. 3
Description
Mathis and his friend Jeremie live in Fort de France, Martinique. Every day they walk to school - and this is the route that they take. Narrated by Mathis, the film is a step-by-step description of their journey from Mathis' house to École Plateau-Didier. Mathis tells us each left and right turn he and Jeremie take, when they cross the road, and the things they pass on the way. Look out for the pizzeria, the sandwich shop and the hairdresser where Mathis goes to have his hair cut. But Mathis, Jeremie and the friends they meet along the way are running late. Will they get to school on time? This lesson starter models language from Unit 15 of the QCDA scheme of work, specifically on how to give directions. There are detailed teaching notes to accompany the film. Shot on location in Fort de France, Martinique, the video offers opportunities to develop language skills and intercultural understanding.
